Restore Saved Games

Hello,

I installed my X2 Lite yesterday and after doing this I promply installed Slayers Auto Evox Install (after backing up C and E).  Everything is working properly except that when I boot into retail mode, and play some of my original games, the saved games I had are now gone?  Im pretty sure (speaking not from experience here) that the saved data was on E and is still intact, but it acts like it has lost its saved database.  When I go into memory from the dashboard, I dont see any of my saved games, only some stuff from the eVox install?  Can anyone point me in the right direction?  Thanks in advance.

E:/CACHE
E/UDATA
E:/TADA
Copy the contence of these folders of your backup to the E:drive in the Xbox. If you had been using Live there would have also been data in X:/ Y:/ & Z:/
Do not replace the folders in E:/ just add what you have in your backup of E: to what is in E: now.

So just copy the data I have in my E backup (in those folders) to the E partition on my xbox?  Do I just click "No" on replace files if that warning comes up?  Thanks.

Copy backup E;/CACHE/*.* to Xbox E:/CACHE/*.*
Copy backup E;/TDATA/*.* to Xbox E:/TDATA/*.*
Copy backup E;/UDATA/*.* to Xbox E:/UDATA/*.*
if there is anything not in the E:/ of the xbox that is in the E:/ of the backup transfer it also to the XboxE:/
I dought there will be any files with the same name and so this should not be an issue. just open the folder for folder in backup and xbox and copy contence.

Yeah, that should be fine.  Once you re-send what you backed up of E: your saved games should be there again.  Also, there is a nice homebrew called Xsaves or something (can't remember, and i'm at work).  It connects through ftp and makes a database of the saved games local and remote.  Very good proggie.
